We propose Image Content Appeal Assessment (ICAA), a novel metric that quantifies the level of positive interest an image's content generates for viewers, such as the appeal of food in a photograph. This is fundamentally different from…
We present the Leuven Art Personalized Image Set (LAPIS), a novel dataset for personalized image aesthetic assessment (PIAA). It is the first dataset with images of artworks that is suitable for PIAA. LAPIS consists of 11,723 images and was…
Image aesthetics assessment (IAA) is a challenging task due to its highly subjective nature. Most of the current studies rely on large-scale datasets (e.g., AVA and AADB) to learn a general model for all kinds of photography images.…
This paper introduces a new data-driven, non-parametric method for image quality and aesthetics assessment, surpassing existing approaches and requiring no prompt engineering or fine-tuning. We eliminate the need for expressive textual…
To learn semantic attributes, existing methods typically train one discriminative model for each word in a vocabulary of nameable properties. However, this "one model per word" assumption is problematic: while a word might have a precise…
Person search by natural language aims at retrieving a specific person in a large-scale image pool that matches the given textual descriptions. While most of the current methods treat the task as a holistic visual and textual feature…
Parsing human poses in images is fundamental in extracting critical visual information for artificial intelligent agents. Our goal is to learn self-contained body part representations from images, which we call visual symbols, and their…
In computer vision, visual arts are often studied from a purely aesthetics perspective, mostly by analysing the visual appearance of an artistic reproduction to infer its style, its author, or its representative features. In this work,…
Attribute-based recognition models, due to their impressive performance and their ability to generalize well on novel categories, have been widely adopted for many computer vision applications. However, usually both the attribute vocabulary…
Computational inference of aesthetics is an ill-defined task due to its subjective nature. Many datasets have been proposed to tackle the problem by providing pairs of images and aesthetic scores based on human ratings. However, humans are…
We train a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) from scratch for visual aesthetic analysis in images and discuss techniques we adopt to improve the accuracy. We avoid the prevalent best transfer learning approaches of using pretrained…
When assessing whether an image is of high or low quality, it is indispensable to take personal preference into account. Existing aesthetic models lay emphasis on hand-crafted features or deep features commonly shared by high quality…
How to robustly rank the aesthetic quality of given images has been a long-standing ill-posed topic. Such challenge stems mainly from the diverse subjective opinions of different observers about the varied types of content. There is a…
Many aesthetic models in computer vision suffer from two shortcomings: 1) the low descriptiveness and interpretability of those hand-crafted aesthetic criteria (i.e., nonindicative of region-level aesthetics), and 2) the difficulty of…
Humans rely on properties of the materials that make up objects to guide our interactions with them. Grasping smooth materials, for example, requires care, and softness is an ideal property for fabric used in bedding. Even when these…
Image aesthetic assessment (IAA) evaluates image aesthetics, a task complicated by image diversity and user subjectivity. Current approaches address this in two stages: Generic IAA (GIAA) models estimate mean aesthetic scores, while…
The style of an image plays a significant role in how it is viewed, but style has received little attention in computer vision research. We describe an approach to predicting style of images, and perform a thorough evaluation of different…
The texture is defined as spatial structure of the intensities of the pixels in an image that is repeated periodically in the whole image or regions, and makes the concept of the image. Texture, color and shape are three main components…
Visual design is associated with the use of some basic design elements and principles. Those are applied by the designers in the various disciplines for aesthetic purposes, relying on an intuitive and subjective process. Thus, numerical…
The appearance of the world varies dramatically not only from place to place but also from hour to hour and month to month. Every day billions of images capture this complex relationship, many of which are associated with precise time and…
